Tottenham's Harry Kane hoping Manchester City beat Liverpool

Tottenham Hotspur legend Graham Roberts has lauded Moussa Sissoko's performance against Cardiff on Tuesday and believes the Frenchman is "bossing" it in midfield this season.

Cardiff are 16th in the Premier League and three points clear of the relegation zone, while Tottenham moved up to second ahead of Thursday's meeting between Liverpool and Manchester City.

The goal saw Kane complete the clean sweep of scoring against all 28 Premier League opponents he has faced, and Spurs eased to a sixth win in seven league games as the gulf between the two sides was cruelly exposed.

After Kane launched an attack, surging from deep, Kieran Trippier crossed and the England forward had a simple tap-in when the ball ricocheted off Cardiff defender Sean Morrison.

Eriksen received a pass from Son, took a touch, and sent a precise shot from the edge of the area just inside the post to make it 2-0 in the 12th minute.

"They have some quality players and I think it will be a massive test for us, after the Wolves defeat, to go there and again to create and be positive". Spurs lost 3-1 to Wolves over the weekend, snapping a five-game winning streak.

'Us and Everton, we were the two teams who suffered the most hard fixtures in that period, ' Pochettino said after Tottenham's fourth game in 10 days. In this country all the people are going to watch the game, but I will be in a neutral position trying to enjoy the game.

On making changes, Pochettino added: "It is more collective than two, three or four players". "The goals were disappointing but they were too good for us in the first half".

"All the planning goes out of the window". Even with a new stadium to move into and Manchester United casting admiring glances at their manager, Eriksen's long-term future is right up there with the most important tasks on the club's to-do list in 2019.

"I was pleased we hung in there because it's easy to throw the towel in when you're 3-0 down to a team like this".
